On the LR-308 the rear takedown pin is held into a place through a detent and spring that are supported by the pistol grip. (Unlike on an ar15 where the takedown pin is detended from the rear stock attachment). This works ok with stock grips, and many aftermarket grips but when attaching a MIAD with the inter-changable back straps the spring seems to slip into the rear groove and doesn't really bind up properly.
Using the smallest grip that does not groove in the back it seems to lock up just enough to keep the detent in place but doesn't really provide great friction for the takedown pin. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions/notes on this combination as I love the MIAD and I know others do to.
Also, I had to trim the safety detent spring but that seems to be fine once "tailored" a little.
Thanks!
